The publication of the Fitzgerald
Daily Leader has ceased. But it has
been shut down no sooner than we
expected.
A Macon lady wants to know what

A block of Georgia marble weigh

Whichever way Dewey comes
home he will wish he had taken
some other route. His welcome
will be the greatest demonst ration
ever accorded to any American,—
says the Ameneus Times-Recorder
This ds a year with only three sea

none, says The Thomasville Times
Enterprtise.
The Vienna Progress refers to some
Oordele paper as “a one-gtdlows

-lid not mean us, for we wear none
at all “but get there just, the same.”
The Atlanta. Constitution tells us
of how Gen. Wheeler was overlooked
in the purade of veterans at Charles
ton. The Atlanta Journal shows us
how Gov. Candler was snubbed. Oh !
how Atlanta can talk about the
other fellow overlooking, and explain
away, when Atlanta overlooks the
whole Alabama legislature.
A British steel manufacturer, in
speaking of American competition
says: “We cannot compete. That is
all there is to it. There is really no
competition. They offer as good
products as ours and at prices from
10 to 20 percent, below ours, and fill
then contracts as by magic. We
simply cannot- do such things. We
are to-day making little or nothing
m our mills, and if we were to cut
our prices we should be terrible losers.
There is no excuse for the Americans
bidding so low ; it is uncalled for."
1 consider it not only a pleasure
nit a duty I owe to my neighbors to
tell about the wonderful curt - effect
ed in my case by the timely use of
Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholora Diar
rhoera Remedy. I was taken very
badly with flux and procured a bot
tle of this remedy. A few doses of
it effected a permanent cure. I take
pleasure in recommending it to
others suffering from that dreadful
disease.—J. VV. Lynch, Dorr, W.Va.
This remedy is sold by J. B. Ryals –

To The Confetlerirte Veteran* of
Dooly County.
Dear Comrades:
The time, July 4th, for the reunion
of the veterans of this county, is
near at hand. We last year invited
you to meet with us this year. We
did it in good faith ; we meant what
we said—that is, come to Arab) in
1899. It is true the point of county
and state lines was raised at Unadil-
1ft ; no objections were set is up bounds by the
camp. With us there no ;
we see no lines. We care not from
what state or county you went from
to the war; all we ask is, did you do
service in the Confederate navy or
army? If so, we meet you on a level
and honor and respect you as a
comrade.
We want you to come and have a
good time with us. Our homes and
our hearts are yours for the time.
Come on, our comrades, and bring
your friend with you.
The sons and daughters of vet- I
erans join us in this invitation.

We are thankful for nil the com
pliments paid us on our “school
issue” of last week. We favor good
schools, such as Cordele has, and we
are glad to write about them. While
other papers in this county are
writhing in pain over the Sentinel’s
prosperity, we are thankful that we
do not have to inflict upon the read
ing public a spiteful reply. On
the other hand, we wish them
well, and may they increase in pros
perity and happiness and such is our
wish for every man, woman and
child in Dooly county.
In the mean time, as our people
are sick und tired of slurs, accusa
tions and senations, we shall pursue
the even tenor of our way, continu
ing to increase our circulation, to
increase advertisers, to write about
schools, to write about chautauquas,
about education, the good county
of Dooly, the good towns in Dooly,
to elevate rather than pull down, to
praise rather than abuse, and “if
the devil comes along our way”
would be thankful to jump on him
and ride him to the western line of
our county, kick him in Flint river
and drown “the rascal.”
A Standard, Square Bale.
“A special effort is being made
throughout the cotton belt to have a
standard, square cotton hale adopted.
This effort is not a new one by any
means. For several seasons it has
been made, but thus far with only
partial success. Last year, in this
state, from twelve to fifteen per
cent, of the cotton press boxes was
changed to the standard measures
ment, which is 24 by 54.
“The cotton growers, particularly
those who have gins, and the cotton
ginners, do not seem to appreciate
the importance of the standard bale.
It is probable that its importance
would be appreciated if higher rail
road and ocean freights were charged
on cotton not baled in accordance
with the standard measurement. At
the convention of the cotton ginners
associations of Texas, held in Galves
ton the other day, a synopsis of the
proceedings of which we publish
this morning, a resolution was
adopted by the Galveston Maritime
Association which provides that cot
ton, in bales of greater dimensions
than the standard bale, and of less
density than 25 pounds to the cubic
foot, shall pay extra freight to the
amount of ten cents per handred
pounds.
‘ ‘ From this it will be seen that it
has become an important matter
that the standard for square bales
shall be adopted. It may cost
something to change press boxes
which do not already conform to the
standard, but it will pay to make
the change. With uniformity in the
bales a greater number of bales can
be carried in cargoes, and hence too
general adoption of the standard
bale would be followed by a reduc
tion in freight rates.”—Savannah
News.
The city tax books are now open

The Dalton Argus speaks our senti
ments when it says that Geor«
gia ought to be very proud of
Hon. Hoke Smith. His election as
president of the International Sun
day School Association is a very
high honor to Georgia and to Atlan
ta ; especially so, because Mr. Smith
will reflect honor upon his state, and
prove the most energetic and efficient
presiding officer the association has
ever had.
A farmer in -upper Crawford
county received an order the other
day from a Macon merchant for 100
bushels of sweet potatoes at 70 cents
a bushel. As he had sold out at 60
cents a bushe', having raised several
handred bushels On a small farm he
decided that potato raising was “the
thing, ” so this year he will plant
for several thousand bushels.
Consumption
is robbed of its terrors by
the fact that the best med
ical authorities state that it
is a curable disease; and
one of the happy things #
about it is, that its victims ■
rarely ever lose hope.
You know there are all sorts of
secret nostrums advertised to cure
consumption. Some make absurd
claims. We only say that if taken
in time and the laws of health are
properly observed,
SCOTT'S |

will heal the inflammation of the
throat and lunand nourish and
strengthen the body so that it can
throw off the disease.
We have thousands of testi
monials where people claim they
have been permanently cured of
this malady.
